CHICAGO, March 3.-There was less ac-
tivity in all the speculative pits to-day.
In wheat the feeling vas unsettled and
nervous. The market was excited at the
opening, caused by free covering by
shorts and influenced somewhat by the
stronger tone of cable advices. The start
ing prizes for May was 1850, or &c higher
than last night, and advanced quickly TO
soc. The offerings were very large at the
outside figure, under which the prices
finally broke off to 7S3a7S. and closed for
the day at 7~Sia79c. Corn quiet. Oats
very quiet. The mess pork market has
been brought to a standStill. There was
practically no trading to-day. A few
transactions for May delivery were made
at SIS to 1900, but prices were nearly
nominal. Lard active. Flour quiet and
unchanged. Wheat-CaSh No. 2 spring
